About Rare Studios AU (Surry)

RARE Studios brings a warehouse-style yoga and movement experience to Surry Hills, just a short walk from Central Station. The light-filled space, with its high ceilings, wooden floors and warm, soft lighting, has earned a loyal following for its calm atmosphere and genuinely friendly community vibe.

The studio runs a broad, all-levels timetable that spans gentle, beginner-friendly flows through to strength-focused sessions, restorative Yin and Yoga Nidra, and dedicated handstand and inversion classes. Signature formats such as Chill Flow, Flow X, Super Chill and Hello Handstand give members plenty of variety, whether they want to wind down or build heat and challenge themselves. Beyond regular classes, RARE also offers 200-hour yoga teacher training, workshops, retreats and social events.

Classes are led by a large, experienced team of certified teachers, each bringing their own style - from technical alignment and inversions to creative, breath-linked sequencing and energetic, music-driven flows. With a sister studio at Bondi Beach, RARE has built a reputation as a welcoming home for both newcomers and dedicated practitioners in the eastern Sydney yoga scene, where quality teaching and a warm, inclusive environment come first.
